Likelihood to Recommend
I’m convinced that the key is guaranteeing the 100% of coverage, with the best configuration possible and without pain or hit at resource consumption and harmonies performance.I would like that the solution detecting, inventorying, and alerting about some host/device unknow or don’t register in KSC. Don’t depend on Device Detection function.

If you're looking for basic signature-based anti-virus at a reasonable price, F-Secure Protection for Business could be a good choice. It does a good job for anti-virus but doesn't include the more advanced features of more expensive products like intrusion detection, forensics, and protection of zero day exploits. It may work well in combination with other tools.

Pros
  • KEDR Optimum is helping to see threat kill chain formation, which helps to get clear picture of the what exactly attacker was trying to do during attack.
  • We are crating prevent execution rules to block the threat in our complete infra.
  • Ioc scan to validate and remove the any active threat entry from our endpoints

  • Anti-virus (classic signature-based). This is a classic anti-virus tool without some of the fancy bells and whistles of more expensive products.
  • Real-time protection. The product can do filesystem scheduled scans as well as real-time analysis of files.
  • Browser protection. It comes with a decent browser plugin that can block access to malicious sites.

Cons
  • Agent package size is little big, if it can be optimize with lite package would be great
  • If possible Host Integrity functionality can be added, to take action as quarantine the non-compliance machine to connect our enterprise network
  • Many times KSC cloud operating slow, if it can optimized for the faster response

  • It does not provide "next gen" features like zero day protection, forensics, intrusion detection and analysis.
  • The management interface is clunky and difficult to use.
  • Real-time protection and firewall services can interfere with legitimate activities at times and make it difficult to troubleshoot.

Likelihood to Renew
At the moment and unfortunately we'll not renew our licenses, due to the Russian conflict and the company policy that has forced us to get rid of any Russian related product. Before that incident, we were very happy with the product and we did not even think once about changing it... Maybe on the future...

This item can always be improved, perhaps by pre-elaborating very long reports, such that they are built progressively so that when the user wants to consult them, the delay is minimal. It would also be interesting to have a warehouse of reports, which serves as a repository where they can be consulted whenever needed, adding AI capabilities that allow data to be linked together and improve the analysis and possible correlations of events.

Alternatives Considered
Kaspersky EDR Optimum is the evolution of Kaspersky Endpoint Bussiness, a more complete product, which runs the same software on Windows 11 and Windows Server. Now, we already use Kaspersky Sandbox on-premises, which has now been unified with KEDR as Cloud Sandbox. These improvements and unifications have made life easier for Security administrators.

F-Secure stacks up very well against competitors like McAfee and Norton. Cost is very reasonable, performance is great, and it does as good (or better) a job of these more well-known products. F-Secure particularly works well for non-profits looking to negotiate for a more reasonable rate.

  • Positive - very generous discounts for non-profits make this inexpensive compared to other products.
  • F-Secure has caught some (but not all) malware incidents on our workstations, which have saved us time and money.
  • The cost/benefit ratio is very high. For what you're getting, this is a reasonably priced product.
